The Offshore Technology Conference (OTC) is celebrating its 50th edition in Houston. The conference is set for April 30-May 3, at the NRG Park.
The first OTC was held May 19-21 1969 in Houston, and was successful beyond expectations with 2,797 registrants, according to the OTC website. OTC has been held in Houston each year since.
The 2018 event will kick-off a year-long celebration of OTC reaching 50 years. This celebration will culminate at OTC 2019.
